Thank you, Barbara, for making me “pay up” on my promise to take you on a wildflower walk. And thank you, Kathleen, for joining us. I think we made quite a (digital) haul!

Another paler violet

One of the Yellow violets

Sweet White Violet

White Trillium

Wild Geranium

This doesn’t count because it was berries, not flowers, but we also saw Partridge Berries and Wintergreen.

Your blog is wonderful and inspiring! You have motivated me to get out and start photographing some spring flowers. I have been fixated on birds and need to look a little lower for some inspiration:) Thank you again for sharing your beautiful photos!
